rates Patent According to our invention, 1,3,5-triazine .is reacted with anhydrous hydrazine, preferably at a temperature from 0 to 40 C., until no more ammonia is evolved. This takes usually from 3 to 12 hours. The reaction is easily carried out by simply admixing the reactants. Because this reaction evolves heat rapidly, even at room temperature, it is preferably carried out in a suitable inert diluent. Such solvents include, for example, the lower aliphatic alcohols as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol and t-butanol, and other solvents such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and dioxane. All diluents and reactants are preferably anhydrous. Since the reaction product tends to turn pink or red in light, it is advantageous to carry out the reaction in the dark. This contamination, however, can be easily removed by washing the crude diformylhydrazine dihydrazone with ether or petroleum ether, or by briefly exposing the product to a vacuum. Since diformylhydrazine dihydrazone is easily oxidized, better results are obtained if the reaction is carried out in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, for instance as under hydrogen or nitrogen.
Diformylhydrazine dihydrazone is a useful intermedi ate for the preparation of 1,2,4-triazole and amino- 1,2,4-triazole, the latter being known as an excellent herbicide.
1,3,5-triazine can be prepared by reacting hydrochloric acid with hydrocyanic acid and treating the resulting compound with a dehydrohalogenating agent, for example, quinoline.
The following example further illustrates this invention:
"ice
To an ice-cooled solution of 3 grams of 1,3,5-triazine in 25 milliliters of anhydrous ether there was added dropwise 5.3 grams of anhydrous hydrazine. During this time, a white solid precipitated, and gaseous ammonia escaped from the reaction mixture. After allowing the reaction mixture to stand for 12 hours at room temperature, the precipitate was filtered by vacuum, washed with 10 milliliters of cold ether and dried over phosphorus pentoxide in a vacuum for 2 hours. The diformylhydrazine dihydrazone so obtained, was a yellowish microcrystalline powder which melted at ll71l8 C. The yield Was 5.3 grams or 79 percent of the theory.
This material was further purified by digestion with 5 milliliters of cold absolute alcohol for 30 minutes followed by rapid filtration under a nitrogen atmosphere. About 4.8 grams of pure diformylhydrazine dihydrazone, which melted at 122-123 C. with decomposition, was obtained.
